Pay off mine friends and my student loans, pay for moving costs to a European country for me and my friends, pay for US citizenship denouncing for me and my friends, set aside an amount of money for myself and my friends for savings to live comfortably, pay for first month’s rent for me and my friends, pay for food for a month for me and my friends, and then if there happens to be anything left, donate it to charities.

Mine’ll have to be Doctor Who and The Good Place. The Good Place is just a nice, comfy comedy show with a really good message and Doctor Who is my comfort show.

I’m using Ubuntu with KDE Plasma. A while ago, Windows reset a lot of my system (thank the powers that be that my files stayed intact), and I decided that I was fed up with Windows and that I’d find a way to continue everything I was doing on Linux. At this point, I’m roughly 95% of the way there as I do own an Oculus Rift which only supports Windows (unless someone can point me to an article or forum post that says otherwise); I’d like to either get a Valve Index or a Quest, but I don’t currently have the money.

In any case, a friend of mine recommended a flavor of Arch that included KDE Plasma (I forget the name, might be Endeavour) but I was coming up with issues that a lot of programs I had wanted to use were only built for Debian/Ubuntu so I switched again. Lovely how with Linux you can switch distros so easily. So I flashed my computer with Kubuntu and I haven’t looked back since.

From what I remember, it had to do with the moderating decisions of the person behind Tildes.

I joined the Beehaw instance a bit ago with a small exodus from Tildes, another Reddit alternative. It’s been nice to see the community grow and grow steadily as time progressed, and seeing the Reddit refugees makes me hopeful for the platform’s strength going into the future regardless of what Reddit does with its API (or other features).

As for the toxic side of Reddit, I’m more concerned for the devs in having to deal with the reports, but as a Reddit mod myself, I don’t think it’ll be too bad. At least on Beehaw we have a supportive community and I’m reminded of a video talking about the userbase of the early UseNet and how they dealt with the first spammer (not necessarily their methods, but the fact that they rose up as a community to enforce a community rule). Hopefully we can see that here (i.e. “the report button exists”).

Edit: a detail

Ah, thank you for the clarification!

Is Lemmy.ml not the flagship instance? Or is it just one of the larger ones?
